Manual building can also be done after you create your clone of the repository.

On linux, or mac, install texlive and you are good to go. With a modern Windows and git-bash you can do the same thing.
- install git-bash (the github windows tools)
- Install TexLive.
- Install Perl http://strawberryperl.com/

- to make make work on windows use git-bash and use chocolaty to install gnu make.
With the free version of overleaf, you can zip the contents of your repo and copy that over and then continue working on overleaf. You are advised to make a regular backup and use that backup to version it to say github. For the free version they do not provide any guarantees, the professional version can however connect to a versioning system like github.
